    Then talking about that effecting the balance of a rifle......

    You are talking about 80-100 grams & less than 1" at most in effectively the middle ish of the rifle where it makes the least difference...

    It isn't even worth talking about..... let alone getting excited about it......
    less than one inch.... how do you figure that...the but of the rifle stays on your shoulder, length of pull stays the same.... action + gain in case length is well over 1" (remembering the effective length of barrel starts at the rifling)... Its all added to the end in real terms not the middle
    Fishing ... Hunting its all good
